For both of them, the wait is short.

When the Templars take an odd turn before the Harrowing chamber, Benedict is tempted to ask why; but he notices how they seem to close in on either side of him, blocking the hallway behind, their faces set in blank, forward-marching purpose. It isn't until he sees Irving step out of a doorway at the end of the hall that he realizes this is the destination: he isn't going to be Harrowed. They can't take the chance.

A loud protest of mingled incredulity and horror rings through the halls, building quickly to screams of helpless, pleading panic as he is easily physically subdued. A door slams, and quiet follows.
